Explanation:
Who guards the north?
The featured picture was taken last March in
Finnish Lapland
where weather can include sub-freezing temperatures and driving snow.
Surreal
landscapes sometimes result, where
white alien-looking sentinels seem to patrol the landscape.
In actuality though, the
aliens are snow-covered trees,
and the red hut they seem to be guarding is an
outhouse.
Far in the distance, behind this uncommon
Earthly vista, is a beautiful
night sky
which includes a
green
aurora, bright stars, and streaks of
orbiting satellites.
Of course, in the spring, the trees thaw and
Lapland looks
much
different.
